Top teams set for A1AL Season 14 finals in Zagreb

The A1AL LAN event in Zagreb is closer than ever! This weekend the last group stage rounds were played in CS2, EAFC, and Brawl Stars, as FC Mobile finished the week before. Only the best made it through and we will watch them compete for the champion title live from the 14th to the 17th of November. Currently, only the PUBG competition remains, and it will be played next weekend. But before that, let’s see who secured their spot in the 14th season of the A1 Adria League.

The top four in Brawl Stars competition

As always the first to take the stage were Brawl Stars teams. On Friday the final phase of the online A1AL S14 in Brawl Stars was played, where teams competed to join Frutas at the LAN final in Zagreb. As you know, Frutas already secured their spot, with impeccable performance the previous weekend.

In the first match of the day, Fantastic eSport defeated La Masia 3:0. Fantastic eSport had a second chance to reach the top 4, making the most of it with a 2:0 win in Gem Grab, a 2:1 win in Bounty, and a 2:0 win in Hot Zone. With only one lost set, they secured their finale spot, ending La Masia’s journey in this A1AL season.

Secondly, Gospodin Adry advanced over FBI by default, as FBI, despite progressing through the main tournament, did not appear on the last online day, automatically giving the win to Gospodin Adry.

Delulu overcame Team Cherry 3:1 in the third match of the competition. Although Team Cherry opened strong with a 2:0 win in Gem Grab, Delulu made a comeback, winning 2:1 in Bounty and 2:1 in Hot Zone, before clinching the final victory in Knockout with a 2:0 win. This turnaround secured Delulu’s spot in the LAN.

Lastly, Gospodin Adry defeated Team Cherry 3:1 for the last spot in the top 4. After advancing directly, Gospodin Adry faced Cherry, who had one last chance to reach the top 4. Gospodin Adry took an early lead with a 2:1 win in Gem Grab, but Cherry equalized after winning 2:1 in Bounty. The two teams battled intensely in Hot Zone, with Gospodin Adry reclaiming the lead after a 2:1 win. In the final round, Gospodin Adry secured their place in the top 4 with a 2:1 victory in Knockout.

A1AL awaiting new EAFC champion

The evening saw intense action in the A1AL EAFC competition, with top players Gruby, Teo, PLGNN Matke, and Nemanja Mišić competing in thrilling matches as they fought for a spot in the final tournament in Zagreb. Marko Grubišić, known as Gruby, and Teo Radman managed to secure their places in the LAN finals after dramatic games filled with skillful play and high-scoring goals.

Champion of the 10th season again at LAN

In the matchup between Gruby and Teo, Gruby won the first game 4:2, with standout performances from Bale and Kvarachelia, who scored pivotal goals. Teo’s scorers, Schelin and Son, couldn’t quite match Gruby’s pace, though they kept it competitive. The second game ended in a 3:3 draw after a hat-trick from Teo’s Vinicius and additional goals from Gruby’s Kvarachelia and Ratter, showcasing the teams’ balanced abilities. With his solid performance, Gruby solidified his position as a contender in the finals.

Meanwhile, in an off-stream match, PLGNN Matke faced Nemanja Mišić, but Mišić dominated with two wins (3:2 and 5:0), effectively eliminating Matke from further competition. Following this, Gruby took on Mišić in a closely contested matchup. Their first game was a 1:1 draw, with goals from Mišić’s Putellas and Gruby’s Mbappe. In the second game, Gruby’s Mbappe scored twice to secure a 2:0 win, demonstrating Gruby’s consistency and advancing him to the top 4.

Teo’s next match was against Matke. Teo won their first off-stream game 5:3 and secured the second game 3:1, with Son and Vinicius scoring late to seal the victory. This result eliminated Matke and set Teo up as a formidable opponent in the upcoming LAN finals. Gruby further cemented his place in the top 4 with another off-stream win over Matke (4:3 and 3:2), confirming his spot among the top players.

Miško dropped the final in a dramatic ending

The final match to determine the LAN qualifiers featured Teo against Mišić. The first game was an intense 2:2 draw, with Mišić initially taking the lead twice through Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo. On the other hand, Teo’s Vinicius managed to equalize in stoppage time after a defensive error by van Dijk. In the second game, Mišić again gained a two-goal advantage, thanks to Valverde and Son, but Teo made a stunning comeback. Karolin Graham Hansen scored twice, with Vinicius adding a final goal after an assist from Salah, clinching the match and securing Teo’s spot in the final four.

As the tournament heads to the LAN finals in Zagreb, the lineup is now set. Gruby, Teo, Brstimir, and Parla will compete on November 15th for the title of the best EAFC player in the region. The stage is set for an exciting conclusion to the season, with fans eagerly awaiting the crowning of the new A1 Adria League champion.

0to100 and Kubix complete the Season 14 top four in CS2

This Sunday the last two duels were played for the final two A1AL spots in the CS2 competition. After Juggernats and Z10 advanced to the finale, they were joined by 0to100 and Kubix completing the best four teams. Oto100 defeated Baklava Gaming, while Kubix bested GOT.

In the match between 0to100 and Baklava Gaming on Dust II, Baklava began with a strong 5:0 lead. After a timeout, 0to100 rallied, winning six consecutive rounds to take the lead. The first half ended evenly at 6:6. The second half saw 0to100 dominate, conceding only a few rounds to Baklava and ultimately securing a 13:8 victory.

On Mirage, Baklava’s T0mann started with a pistol ACE, helping them win the first three rounds. 0to100 quickly responded, leveling the score at 3:3, then pushing ahead to 4:3. By halftime, 0to100 held an 8:4 advantage. Like Dust II, they claimed the second pistol round and controlled the half, winning Mirage 13:8.

In the GOT versus Kubix matchup, Kubix came out aggressively on Inferno, establishing a 4:0 lead. After exchanging rounds, Kubix closed out Inferno dominantly with a 13:4 score. This was a pretty one-sided game and a clean win for Kubix.

The Dust II game opened with GOT taking a commanding 6:0 lead. Kubix then won four rounds, but GOT closed the half with an 8:4 lead. Kubix recovered in the second half, leveling the score at 8:8 and pulling ahead to 10:8. GOT tied it again at 10:10, but the teams traded rounds in a back-and-forth finish. Ultimately, Kubix edged out GOT with a final score of 13:11. It was amazing and exciting to watch these two teams try so hard to secure the finale. Unfortunately, even though they both showed extraordinary performance, only one could make it.

A1AL S14: Brawl Stars, EAFC, FC Mobile, and CS2 group stage action

The results of the first round in the 14th season of A1AL in Brawl Stars, EAFC, and FC Mobile are in. CS2 teams played the second round of groups and two teams secured their first wins. Many interesting things occurred this weekend and some players and teams are already eliminated. In the group stage, there is no room for mistakes. Our competitors should know that and everyone is doing their best. For a full recap, keep reading!

Favorites successful in the first round of Brawl Stars

The Swiss start was smooth for the favorites, with FBI and Delulu providing the only genuinely tense match. While the result might not reflect it, Delulu was fortunate to wrap things up quickly, but they still earned a well-deserved victory.

The 76ers made a stylish debut against Team Cherry. As the vice-champions, they proved their #2 seed status, facing only minor challenges in the Heist set before securing a 3:0 win.

Frutas is another team that frequently garners attention and praise. Despite facing the technically weakest team in the tournament due to the Swiss format, they still dominated with a 2:0 finish. La Masia, however, is a team to watch next week when they face opponents more suitable for them.

Furthermore, when it came to the fourth match in the first round of the group stage, a team was disqualified. OMERTA failed to show up in their duel against Gospodin Adry who got an automatic win. Maestros will play in OMERTA’s place and they will compete in the second round of A1AL with a 0:1 score.

BS group stage first round A1AL S14

Conclusion of group A and B matches in the FC Mobile

An explosive start of the first round of FC Mobile group stage in the 14th season of the A1AL. Groups A and B set a possible record for goals scored, with an average of 3.25 goals per game, totaling 78 goals across 24 matches. After all of these matches, we had to say goodbye to four players with the worst results. Those that didn’t make it are Vuk, Iky, Havertz, and Nedox10, while in the rest of the competition, we will continue to watch SPK_Somzi, and RAB_MahirSarajlic from group A and FE_Shaq and Alen from group B.

In group A, the first seed is SPK_Somzi who earned 11 points, winning three, drawing two, and losing only one game. Another player who will advance into the top eight is RAB_MahirSarajlic with 10 points. He also won three matches, drew one, and lost two.

In group B things were bombastic and we saw a lot of goals. Especially in the match BUD_Havertz vs Nedox10. There, the former scored an overall seven goals, ending the game 7:1. Haverz also recorded the most goals in this round (14) but failed to qualify unfortunately. From this group, Shaq is the first place with 12 points (4 wins and 2 losses). The second place is Alen with the same result, but a worse goal difference.

Next week you can follow the matches from groups C and D. Don’t miss the action!

Highlights from the A1AL group stage matches in EAFC25

Following the qualifications, we transitioned to the group stage of the season, shifting from EAFC24 to the new EAFC25. The day’s opening match on stream featured Misko, the top scorer from the qualifiers, against Bati, who ranked lower. Misko dominated the game, displaying solid play in both attack and defense, quickly establishing a 2-0 lead by the 22nd minute. The match concluded with a score of 4-1 in favor of Misko.

The other matches proved more challenging for the players, particularly for Jasik, who struggled to convert his chances. Despite a strong performance, he faced tough defense from AmcoS, who scored in the 12th minute. The highlight was AmcoS’ spectacular goal in the 88th minute, a stunning shot from Dembele that hit the underside of the crossbar.

In the next match, Gruby faced CLA_tuna13, resulting in a hard-fought game where both players scored, sharing the points.

Last season’s runner-up, CLA Banderas narrowly defeated Fika, who advanced from the playoffs, with a final score of 3-2, securing all three points.

The fourth match featured defending champion GAMEON Marac against 10th-season champion Gruby. As expected, it was a tense contest that ended in a 1-1 draw, with both players sharing points.

The final match of the day saw Fika hoping to redeem his earlier missed opportunities against CLA Banderas. Initially, Fika held a 3-1 lead after 35 minutes, but his opponent scored two quick goals before halftime, leveling the score at 3-3. The second half was marked by fierce competition, yet neither player managed to score again, leaving the final result the same.

These were the highlighted games that we watched on stream. However, an overall 24 matches were played, and here are the leaders of the groups after the first A1AL group stage round.

GROUP A:

  1. Brstimir – 9 points
  2. Misko – 6 points

GROUP B:

  1. AmcoS – 7 points
  2. PLGNN Matke – 7 points

GROUP C:

  1. Gruby – 5 points
  2. GAMEON Marac – 4 points

GROUP D:

  1. Hara  – 6 points
  2. CLA_Banderas – 4 points

I would also like to highlight Brstimir as our MVP. He is the only player who went through the first part of the group stage with all the victories. That tells us about the competition of the A1AL league itself. Brstimir scored 11 goals and conceded only three while playing the 4-4-1-1 formation.

CS2 teams Kubix and Juggernauts secure first wins in the A1AL group stage

In the second group stage round of the 14th A1AL season, Kubix and Juggernauts were victorious and secured the first wins. They defeated their opponents, the former with a clean 2:0 win, and the latter with a 2:1 victory. They now have a 1:0 score, just like Zero Tenacity and Oto100 who were successful in the previous round.

The first duel on stream was Kubix’s match against BAKLAVA Gaming. Kubix had a stellar start on Mirage, leading 4:0, but Baklava fought back, winning six rounds in a row to equalize by halftime. Kubix then secured their fifth round due to some minor mistakes by Baklava, bringing the score to 7:5 in Baklava’s favor. The second half began with Kubix winning another pistol round, tying the game at 7:7 with two consecutive victories. From there, Kubix dominated the remainder of the map, finishing with a score of 13:9.

On Dust II, Baklava started strong, winning the first three rounds. Kubix responded at the same pace, leveling the score to 3:3 after six rounds. The remainder of the half was a back-and-forth battle, ending in a 6:6 tie. Kubix won the pistol round of the second half, taking the lead for the first time on his chosen map. However, Baklava continued to push forward, reaching a total of 10 rounds while Kubix struggled to respond from the CT side. After three rounds, Kubix fought back to tie the score at 10-10. Tripey and, Rossonerii helped Kubix secure an 11th round against Baklava. Kubix then clinched the next two rounds, finishing the series 2:0. Despite this victory in the bo3, Kubix doesn’t seem to have the same dominance as last season’s champion.

Juggernauts and Diamant battle it out in a thrilling bo3 series

In the second duel of the day, the Juggernauts began their game on Anubis with a pistol and bonus win, but Diamant Esports quickly responded with three consecutive rounds on the CT side. The Juggernauts then became more aggressive, finishing the first half with an 8:4 lead. The second half dashed Diamant’s hopes as the Juggernauts secured their ninth round with a pistol win. However, Diamant rallied back, winning three rounds in a row until SteveO purchased an AWP in round 17, helping the Juggernauts to their tenth round. The match became uncertain as Diamant surged, winning four straight rounds to level the score at 11:11. In the end, Diamant remained steady, finishing with six consecutive rounds to claim Anubis 13:11.

On Mirage, Diamant kicked off with a pistol win, but the Juggernauts quickly countered, taking four consecutive rounds to lead 4:1. Diamant regained control, evening the score at 5:5 with contributions from Destroyd and Jernej. Ultimately, Diamant ended the half ahead with a 7:5 score. The Juggernauts tied it up after winning the pistol and bonus rounds. The teams battled aggressively, reaching a tie at 10:10, but the Juggernauts dominated the final three rounds to win the map and push for Dust II as the decider.

Dust II started with a pistol and bonus win for the Juggernauts on the CT side. However, Diamant quickly bounced back, winning three rounds before losing the fourth, making it 3:3. The Juggernauts then hit their stride, winning the next three rounds and securing a strong 8:4 lead by halftime. After winning the pistol and bonus again in the second half, the Juggernauts maintained their momentum and closed Dust II with a decisive 13:4 victory.

CS2 group stage round 2 results

Take a look at the wildly exciting third weekly A1AL recap!

The group stage of CS2 began with the first two matches, Brawl Stars had their first qualifier with a well-known winner, and EAFC24 and EAFC24 Mobile have only one more qualifier cup left. Many interesting things happened, some positive some negative. Read on to learn more and find out the results in the A1AL recap.

Prometey and GIZONE secured first wins in the A1AL group stage

The group stage has started, and the DE bracket is being played. The first BO3 matches played were between Kubix vs PROMETEY and Bagra vs GIZONE. Let’s take a look at the first match. 

PROMETEY decided on Ancient as their map pick. However, that didn’t turn out quite as planned for them. Only the pistol round was successful in the first half. Kubix ended this half with a big 10-2 advantage. Amar finds three kills in the second half and secures a victory for his team (13-2).

On Anubis, PROMETEY and Kubix switched places. This time PROMETEY was 10-2 after the first half. At 12-2, Kubix wakes up and imposes their play style. Amar opens the B site almost every round. At 12-7, Rile saves AWP, and in the next round, that AWP is of great importance. At 12:8, Wazz pushes B main and finds a frag, while Rile helps him find another one. At this point everything falls apart for Kubix and PROMETEY takes the map with 13-8.

A very close first half was seen on the decider map which was Mirage. A little struggle for Kubix and a great play from PROMETEY in multiple rounds lead us to the 7-5 score at the half. In the second half, Kubix on the T side plays strongly and takes an 8-7 lead. PROMETEY manages to take the round and equalize the result at 8-8 and with an excellent game returns to the lead of 10-8. But that lead did not last long. On the wings of Lewis, Kubix returns to 10-10. But again a reversal, the powerful Prometey arrives at 12-10 where Gejmzilla has a planted bomb and remains in a 2v1 situation where he knifes the defuser and finds another kill. That brings us to 12-11. After that, two rounds were taken by the MIGHTY PROMETEUS sending Kubix to the lower bracket of A1AL.

GIZONE is victorious after two games only

On Inferno, GIZONE is completely dominating the first half on their CT side. They rarely let Bagra even plant the bomb, and when they did, it was an easy defuse for their opponents. Even though the first half ended with 9-3, Bagra wasn’t going to fall that easily. After 11-4, they begin to wake up. They managed to reach 12-9 and the possibility of a comeback shone before their eyes. Unfortunately, GIZONE opens the next round with two frags and finishes what they started taking the first map with a 13-9 score.

Crazy first half on Mirage. GIZONE takes the first three rounds, but Bagra with astonishing gameplay after that takes seven in a row. After 7-5 half, GIZONE takes the lead at 11-9 after a few very close rounds. However, Bagra doesn’t surrender and they then take the lead (12-11). After missing the match point, the game goes into overtime. Both teams did great on the CT side of overtime. But in the end, GIZONE pushes short and wins with a 16-14 score.

CS2 group stage A1AL

Brstimir wins the third EAFC24 qualifier

The fact that some of the favorites secured a place in the top 16 of A1AL after two qualifiers opened up space for new players to get points. Milos “Brstimir” Majdevac missed the second qualification, but in the third, he came for the full spoils and thus definitely secured his place in the group stage. In the finals, his opponent was his old rival Harun “Hara” Parla, who after a difficult victory in the first game, he routinely defeated in the second with a score of 7-1.

Jovan “CZBackoSRB” Balać gave us the biggest surprise, by winning 3rd place and is now on the threshold of the group stage. Along with Brstimir, Misko, and Cere, CZBacko has brightened the face of Serbia in the A1 Adria League, which until now was mainly led only by Brstimir.

Skrebo98 secures maximum points in the third A1AL EAFC24 Mobile qualifier

Another great competition in the third EAFC24 Mobile qualifier in the A1AL as 240 players signed up.

The third qualification brought the new-old champion of the Balkans, Shaq, almost to full glory. He won in the quarterfinals against the best overall scorer, Bojce. However, he was very close to coming out first from these qualifications. This time that honor belongs to the Buducnost eSports player Skrebo98 from Bosnia.

Their duel, after a draw in the first match, and the triumph of one after the other, was decided by a golden goal, in the 55th minute of the 4th match. An unfortunate deflected ball after a free kick ended up in the upper left corner of Shaq’s goal.

In the overall standing, Bojce still leads with 290 points, followed by Savazver, Skrebo98, and Shaq respectively.

EAFC24 Mobile third qualifier A1AL

Is Salada de Frutas back for more titles?

This week we began the Brawl Stars qualifiers. BS has been a standard game in the A1AL for many seasons. In the 13th season, we will host four qualifiers. The first is already over, and it ended with Salada de Frutas demolishing their opponents and winning maximum points. They showed extraordinary performance and didn’t lose a single game until the finals. There they faced team FBI, and in the BO5 duel won with a 3-1 score. Our three-time champions changed their roster with only DzonDzon remaining at the moment.

However, not all news is good. We have had some problems in the first BS qualifier. The problems with the FaceIT platform led to many misunderstandings and unfortunately, teams were injured for their points.

I would like to apologize to everyone immediately because of yesterday’s events. The way the qualifiers were held yesterday did not live up to the A1 Adria League standard, as we always try to give our players the best possible playing experience with a healthy dose of competition. Unfortunately, that was not possible yesterday due to things beyond our control.

We will no longer rely on Facit’s automatic matchmaking system, as it has proven to be extremely unreliable and inaccurate. From the next qualifier, all matches will be monitored and recorded manually, and all communication between players will be conducted via Faceit rooms, and results will be reported to the channel ⁠💯✦results✦ on Discord.” – Inder, Brawl Stars administrator
